it was rather large.. several thousand users. a smaller (but not by much) group named netaudio is still there, but its netaudio in general and is ran by the german mag de:bug.

its just bizarre to me that the group would just vanish and no one would mention it anywhere...

It was mentioned a few weeks ago on http://www.phlow.de/netaudio/netlabel_news.php but this cannot be consulted anymore. Don't ask me why it was closed though ;-)

i found some caches of the post.. they seem to say its because the msgs are identical to another list, probably the netaudio one.

shame really, net_label_releases was a larger group and as much as i like the guys @ de:bug it is a for-profit company and netaudio is more than netlabels. some of the content is german only also.

if they're talking about the google group, well.. google groups still pretty much suck and the netlabel group there is extremely tiny.

just straight up deleting the group seems a bit misinformed and irresponsible (not to mention a bit selfish). and they did it WAY too fast for many users to even find out where to go or whats going on. not to mention it could have been closed and the archive left online.

anyways, lame.
